The following computer-generated description may contain errors and does not represent the quality of the book:As to the arrangement of the bibliography, the numbers in each chapter refer to the list immediately following the chapter. Although this entails a few repetitions, it is hoped that it will prove of more immediate value to the reader than a genera bibliography for the whole at the end of the volume. In addition to the references throughout the book, the following treatises should be listed as standards of reference in colloidal study: Zsigmondy, Zur Erkenntnis der Kotloide . 190;.(English translation by Alexander.1909. Cotton et Mouton, Les ultramicroscopes et les objets ultnunicroscopiques . 1906.Arthur Miiller, Allgeroeine Chemie der Kolloide . 1907. Wo. Ostwald, GnindrissdcrKolloidcheniic . 1909.The. Svedberg, Herstellung Kolloidcr Lfisungen . 1909. Frenndtich, Kapiltarchemie . 1909.van Bemmelen, Die Absorption. 1911. Zaigmondy, KoUoidcheniie . 1912.The. Svedberg, Die Existeni der Mcdekiile . 1913.Side by side with these, one must mention the Zeitschrift fUr Chemie und Industrie der Kolloide (KoUoid-Zeitschrift) and the Kolloidchemische Beihefte, published by Wo. Ostwald; anyone hoping to have any complete conception of the subject should be familiar with these journals from their beginnings. The few references made to these journals in the bibli(raphies do not represent adequately ones real indebtedness to them. I desire to express here the sense of gratitude I feel to Sir J.J. Thomson, who first suested the subject of colloids to me, and who has invariably shown a keen and sympathetic interest in the work, and also to Mr. W.B. Hardy, F.R.S., one of the pioneers of the modem work on colloids who, during the writers residence in Cambridge, was a continual source of help and inspiration.
